I was sleeved on Tuesday 12/6. I went back to work the following Tuesday, so I was out for one week.

I took three weeks off. I'm half way thru that time now and I'm thinking I'll go back early. I'm a bit bored at home. I work at home on Friday and that went fine. I have a desk job.

I'm a therapist. I took one month off and was exhausted easily by lunchtime for another two weeks.

Not working but I can say I drove the day after I was discharged. It was 3 days before Christmas and all my elves were at work. I did rest a lot while walking the stores but it served me better than laying in bed drinking broth. Got rid of all that nitrous oxide quickly. I never took my hydrocodone so I was good on the road.

Seriously. I was sleeved on a Tuesday, released from hospital on the Thursday, worked from home on Friday and back at the office on Monday. Granted I have a desk job but I was perfectly fine. I am in and out of meetings all day and thought this was a good way to keep my mind occupied. I didn't take any pain meds or nausea once I left the hospital and didn't need them.

I am hoping for the same. I am more disciplined at work than home. I have an optional standing or sitting desk. I constantly walk around the office. I'm getting sleeved in 2 days and hope to go back to office within a week.

I took 2 weeks cause I drive a truck ( not a small one either lol) and it's physically hard.

Water isn't a problem at all. I bring an esky with me everyday to keep my food cool.

I never had to have pain meds thank god. When I got home I was bloody cleaning the next day ( day 3)

My doctor required 3 weeks. But I'm an ER nurse at a level 2 trauma facility. Sitting and resting doesn't happen. I return Wednesday and I'm really nervous. My energy level crashes after a couple of hours of activity
